Virat Kohli's prime vs Sachin Tendulkar's prime

[Narayana]

There are many biased fan,who just overrates past players,
So let see if they really have some cricket knowledge or not

Scoring 100s was difficult in 1990s

Before 1998 :

Waugh : 11 tons in 140 matches

Lara : 11 tons in 125 matches

De Silva : 10 tons in 220 matches

Anwar : 14 tons in 140 matches

Jayasuriya : 6 tons in 150 matches


Even Sachin himself scored 12 centuries in 170 innings at the end of 1997.

The legendary Richards himself scored 11 centuries in 167 innings.

The record holder at that time Desmond Haynes scored 17 centuries in 237 innings


In 1998 :

Sachin : 9 tons in 33 innings

That is why Sachin’s 1998 is so special. He was on a different league compared to anyone who played ODI cricket

By the way this Post is not about their odi prime, we are talking about test prime

Prime to Prime might be close- (remembers 1993-2001 Tendulkar), ok, not close at all.

 

[Daemon]

Who have you voted for @Narayana?

 

[DrWolverine]

By the way this Post is not about their odi prime, we are talking about test prime

It’s still Sachin

Between 1993-2002
Batsmen with 5000+ test runs
Sachin was simply ahead of everyone else then

Waugh record is More impressive considering his performance against Top 4.

The top 4 , except he didnt even have to play the toppest 1 of all.

So what West Indies bowlers, Pak bowlers are better than aus Bowers.

Better than McGrath and Warne? Wut

 

[Narayana]

Better than McGrath and Warne? Wut

McGrath was not that good in 90s 22.7 AVG with 260 wickets., he didn't included in the team of 90s.
Donald (21.7 AVG with 280+ wickets, Akram 23.1 AVG with 370+ wicket s, Ambrose 20 AVG were marginally better.

1993-2002

Sachin vs Aus/SA/WI
37 Tests. 3185 runs. Avg of 52. 9 centuries. 15 fifites

Waugh vs SA/WI
35 Tests. 2681 runs. Avg of 53. 8 centuries. 13 fifties.

I will still take Sachin over Waugh

 

[DrWolverine]

McGrath wasn’t good in the 1990s? Lol

Jesus christ shut down the forum we've reached peak idiocy

 

[Johan]

Waugh played too low

 

[Narayana]

Waugh vs SA/WI

I mean india pitches never tough to bat.
Like aus pitches and Waugh performed way better in away almost twice better AVG.

 

[OverratedSanity]

McGrath wasn’t good in the 1990s? Lol

Only took 260 wickets @22.7. What a loser.

 

[Narayana]

Jesus christ shut down the forum we've reached peak idiocy

Can't you see the AVG of others?

 

[Narayana]

Only took 260 wickets @22.7. What a loser.

What is your argument man?
This number is better than sa, pak,wi bowlers.
